Did you know... that WOLD-FM in Marion, Virginia, signed on almost exactly six years before "W*O*L*D", Harry Chapin's song about a fictional FM station in Boise, Idaho, peaked on the Billboard Hot 100?

The FCC License is in the name of Emerald Sound, Inc - and the FCC ownership report makes no mention of a T.E.C.O...StreamingRadioGuide (talk) 18:23, 11 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

T.E.C.O. took over WOLD-FM in 2006 (I do believe, might have been 2007) and owns the station but never changed the license with FCC. T.E.C.O. owns another Marion, Virginia station WZVA. - NeutralHomer • Talk • March 11, 2009 @ 18:39

Looks they finally got this mess straightened out and properly backdated. - Dravecky (talk) 06:56, 29 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
